With the Delta variant of COVID-19 surging through much of the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has sped up its timeline to fully approve Pfizer-BioNTech’s coronavirus vaccine. The agency hopes to complete the process by the start of September 2021.<\/p>\n

Last week, President Joe Biden states that he fully expected the vaccine’s approval by early fall. However, the FDA’s unofficial deadline is Labor Day \u2014 Sept. 6, 2021 \u2014 or sooner, according to several people familiar with the agency’s plan. In a statement, the FDA said that its leaders acknowledge that approval might inspire more public confidence and they have “taken an all-hands-on-deck approach” to the work.<\/p>\n

Last year the FDA granted emergency authorization for the Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson vaccines. Giving final approval to the Pfizer vaccine could increase the rates that individuals are being inoculated \u2014 especially with the Delta variant sharply increasing the number of new COVID-19 cases.<\/p>\n

The Defense Department, San Francisco, and a number of hospitals and universities are expected to mandate inoculation once a COVID-19 vaccine is fully approved. Hopefully, the FDA’s final approval will help squash misinformation about the vaccine’s safety and clarify some legal issues about mandates.<\/p>\n

According to The New York Times, the dean of the Brown University School of Public Health, Dr. Ashish K. Jha, said he has not “sensed a sense of urgency from the F.D.A. on full approval.”<\/p>\n

And I find it baffling, given where we are as a country in terms of infections, hospitalizations and deaths.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Around 192 million U.S. citizens \u2014 58 percent of the total population and 70 percent of the adults in the nation \u2014 have received at least one vaccine injection. Many individuals remain vulnerable to the ultra contagious, dominant Delta variant. According to The New York Times, the U.S. sees almost 86,000 new COVID-19 infections daily. This is an increase of 142 percent from two weeks ago.<\/p>\n

The FDA has been evaluating data from clinical studies \u2014 which included tens of thousands of individuals \u2014 for each coronavirus vaccine. COVID-19 vaccines were approved for emergency use because the FDA felt their potential benefits outweighed the known and possible risks.<\/p>\n
